Adrian of Orléans (born c. 755–died before November 821) was a Frankish count. His sister Hildegard of Vinzgouw married Charlemagne; therefore, he was the emperor's brother-in-law and uncle to the next emperor, Louis the Pious.

Parentage[]

He was the son of Gerold of Vinzgau^[1] and Emma of Alemannia.

Family[]

He married Waldrada,^[1] who may have been a daughter of Wilhelmid Adalhelm of Autun, and had issue:

• Odo I, Count of Orleans (d. aft. 15 Feb 834),^[1] who married Engeltrude of Fézensac, daughter of Count Leuthard I of Paris.
• Waldrada who married Robert III of Worms (d. 834), count of the Oberrheingau and the Wormsgau, father of Robert the Strong.^[1]
